Today's visit was to verify that the Victory 2DR upright cooler and potentially hazardous foods (PHF) inside are both holding at 41F or below. EHS observed both the cooler and PHF holding below 41F. In order to assist the CFM and facility is establishing and maintaining active managerial control a Risk Control Plan was developed and signed by CFM and EHS. Another follow-up inspection will be conducted at the completion to the risk control plan.
No violation noted during this evaluation. | 03/31/2016 | Follow-up | |
The purpose of today's visit was to conduct a routine inspection. EHS will conduct a follow-up inspection this afternoon to verify that the sole main refrigerator has been repaired to hold food at 41F or below.

The purpose of this follow-up inspection was to verify whether the Victory 2DR upright cooler had been repaired to maintain 41F or below. A third party service technician has not arrived to the facility. All potentially hazardous food that was placed on time as a public health control earlier today has been properly discarded. Currently all refrigerated potentially hazardous food (PHF) is being held in a refrigerator in another permitted facility owned by the same permit holder also located in the mall. The CFM/Owner agree to keep all PHF at 41F or below in the second facility. The CFM/Owner agreed to mark all PHF for a six hour use by or discard time period (since the refrigerator in this facility is holding below 70F, currently holding at 49F). The third party service technician is scheduled to arrive at the facility later this evening or tomorrow, March 30, 2016. CFM/Owner agreed to continue to use time as a public health control and properly mark all PHF, until the Victory 2DR upright cooler is fully repaired to hold 41F or below. CFM/Owner agreed to call the EHS to conduct a follow-up inspection once the repair is complete. At the time of the follow-up inspection, EHS and CFM/Owner will complete a risk control plan to control the risk factor of improper cold holding, which has been observed out of compliance at the last four routine inspections.
- Equipment / Good Repair / Operation
Observation: The following refrigeration unit is not operating properly and is unable to maintain cold food at or below 41°F: ------------Victory 2DR upright cooler observed holding at 46-49F after remaining closed for an extended period of time.

03/29/2016 | Follow-up | |
Today's visit is a second follow-up to verify that the Victory 2DR upright cooler is able to hold at 41F or below. EHS observed unit holding at 39-40F. Food in unit was holding at 41F, with one item below 41F. It is recommended that food items be holding well below 41F before the busy times. Please keep in mind that at least one CFM be present in the mall. Please keep in mind that more active managerial control is needed in the area of cold holding, especially considering cold holding has been observed out of compliance at the least three routine inspections. Please continue to maintain the equipment temperature log discussed on Friday and email/fax after one week of recording. Inspection time includes waiting for the CFM to arrive on site.
- Critical: Certified Food Manager/Presence Required (corrected on site)
Observation: There is no Certified Food Manager present at the beginning of the inspection.
Correction: It shall be unlawful to operate a food establishment unless it is under the immediate control of a certified food manager. It is highly suggested that you have more than one employee with the food manager's license. ORS Interactive, Inc. (see handout provided) issues the required photo identification card with proof of successful completion of a certified food manager's exam. Failure to have a certified food manager on site during ALL hours of operation including food preparation, food service, and cleaning/sanitizing of equipment/utensils will result in closure of the establishment.
